Today at #gencon I played a Duros mechanic in a really fun #EdgeOfTheEmpire game. Then played #SavageWorlds Flash Gordon, wrecked 2 wolfoid arena monsters and then got crushed for 32 damage by a giant robot! Owwwww! #ttrpg

Heute um 1400 (ich werde pünktlich sein, aber rechne mit Verspätung) rede ich mit einem Star Wars Superfan über Star Wars Tabletop aka Pen & Paper. Ich freue mich sehr drauf.
Edit: Ich werde von EotE, Saga Edition, und WEG D6 erzählen. Könnte lange dauern. Quasi eine Session -1.
BLOG RERUN: 2 years ago I ran #AgeOfRebellion one-shot for my language teacher colleagues during the week-long mid-semester break! Here's what happened: https://hishgraphics.com/aor-the-intelligent-tree-whisperers/
@bwebster Escape from Mos Shuuta is an introductory adventure for Star Wars Edge of the Empire. I think it makes a good starter game because it introduces gaming mechanics a bit at a time, holding the GM's hand as well as the players'. Getting GMs comfortable running a system is just as important as getting players comfortable. This module is also small enough to fit in one session while also including enough to demonstrate what playing #swrpg #EdgeoftheEmpire is like.
BLOG RERUN: Exactly 10 years ago, I ran a #StarWarsRPG #EdgeOfTheEmpire session for my then 12 year old son. Hondo Pash goes to Naboo, loses his merc bodyguard to bounty hunters, and worst of all... his 9 year old (NPC) sister buys 6 giant buckets of ice-cream! #ttrpg
Want to try getting by a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away? Then #StarWars: Edge of the Empire is for you!
Take your crew, choose a starship and head to the Outer Rim, looking for work but staying clear of imperial entanglements: https://shinygames.uk/product-tag/recent-restocks/?orderby=date
#ThisWeekAtMyTable my brand new Edge of the Empire group decided to attack a group of thugs who were trying to bully a poor mining community into giving up their land.
They ambushed a convoy of construction vehicles and blew them to pieces with improvised mining charges and frag grenades, a complete massacre.
The adventure I'm running (Long Arm of the Hutt) changes gears to a heavy RP fancy dress party next, we will see how my murderhoboes do!
What do a Twi'Lek, Wookie, Dashade, Two Humans, and an Astro-droid have in common? They suck at making money and got involved in the assassination of 3 Moffs.
Edge of the Empire TTRPG starts now!

I just realized a real problem about having most of your #StarWars nerd friends in your new #EdgeOfTheEmpire group: It significantly reduces the number of people I can tell about cool plot twists I have planned if I don't want to spoil anyone.
Nachdem die für gestern organisierte Runde #MasksANewGeneration ausgefallen ist, wurde es dann spontan eine Runde #EdgeOftheEmpire mit meinen liebsten #StarWars Nerds. Merke: Ein "leichter Job", um für die Rebellion Waffen an aufständische Bergleute zu schmuggeln, wird durch ein paar Piraten mit einer geklauten Raiderkorvette nicht leichter.
Und vielleicht ergibt sich daraus jetzt eine Kampagne, mal gucken.
@MoltenSulfur Hmm.... This sounds like one of the modules my group played. We went the negotiation route ourselves, and ended up getting those former clone troopers into some nice retirement digs.
BLOG RERUN: One year ago, 8 of my colleagues played in a #StarWarsRPG session I ran at work. Rebels at the Defiant Core Base takes a ride to Fest. This is what happened:

Just published a new #TTRPG blog post about wrapping up a three-year #DnD 5E campaign and sharing my character concept for the #StarWars #EdgeOfTheEmpire game we're going to play next: https://lostletters.neocities.org/2023/11/06/three-yrs-dnd
Preparing to play #StarWars #EdgeOfTheEmpire for the first time next year, so I'd love to watch/listen to some actual play #TTRPG one-shots or campaigns if anyone has any recs.
@phd20 That's one reason I listen to actual plays, to get ideas for #NPCs. So yes, I'd reuse an NPC in a new campaign, regardless of setting, if they fit a needed role. But as soon as that NPC came into being, they would of course begin to deviate from how they were in their previous iteration.
I've done this with PCs, too. When we first got #StarWarsRPG #EdgeoftheEmpire we recreated our PCs from a #GURPS #Fallout game to take the new system for a spin. #ttrpg
@Da_Gut Here's a link to where to find "One Shot First" for #EdgeoftheEmpire #StarWarsRPG
@drevrpg When I was running an #EdgeoftheEmpire game and the PCs met Wedge, he was suffering from major survivor's guilt.
After our #InvisibleSun game had to be canceled yesterday due to our GM being a horribly good person who cares for his goddaughter, @Ghulgrube kindly GMed a #StarWars #EdgeOfTheEmpire game for @catrinity, @tinofalke and me.
We were in Maz Kanata's castle/cantina when an Imperial cruiser appeared in orbit and told us that someone in there had stolen cultural artifacts and the whole place would be vaporized if the thief wasn't found.
So we looked around and wondered who here could have something like that. Answer: Obviously everyone. We had a fun mix of GM- and player-invented scoundrels and villains of all kinds who we could trust to escalate the whole thing if we didn't act.
In the end, we managed to figure out who was selling and who was buying the artifact, distracted the buyer, bluffed the seller, got the artifact, realized it was something Force-related that shouldn't find its way back to the Empire and switched it for a vaguely similar item. We then figured out who among the locals was actually an ISB agent, stunned her, grabbed her credentials and used them to frame her as the thief, with my droid posing as an ISB intermediary handing over the "thief" and the "artifact" to the arriving Imperial soldiers.
Considering our GM had about one evening to prepare for the game *and* incorporated our spontaneously invented NPCs into a cool closed room scenario with lots of escalation potential, an amazing amount of fun was had. Also, the usefulness of a gamorrean bachelor party as a distraction cannot be overstated.
